Wonderful green-style oolong is named for the fine "hairs" on the backside of the leaves. It is a highly aromatic and floral tea grown only in the AnXi Region. Ours is a spring lot, traditionally processed and lightly oxidized. The leaves are rolled and a mix of light and dark greens. The leaves unfurl to a truly delicious cup with delicate "peach-like" notes. It is an oolong that can be served hot or iced/chilled.
Tea Notes
The spring and fall, first and second plucking's are made to oolong tea. Later plucks, bigger leaves are now more often used for black tea.
This Oolong is quite good served chilled!
